import stl

Hi, I am trying to import an STL file and I get an error:

% python
Python 3.5.3 |Intel Corporation| (default, Apr 27 2017, 18:08:47)

>>> import meshio as io
>>> io.read('./data/03_FULL_DELIVERY_22/VHP22_STL_FILES/VHPC_Heart.stl',file_format='stl')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/opt/intel/intelpython3/lib/python3.5/site-packages/meshio/helpers.py", line 121, in read
    return format_to_reader[file_format].read(filename)
KeyError: 'stl'

Any ideas?

• This refers to meshio, not pygmsh; I've launched STL format meshio#177.
• In Gmsh, STL can be merged directly, like STEP Cannot open stp file in python #121 and IGES IGES #122; no need for pygmsh.

Alright, let's follow it up on meshio#177.
